Please do not lose this receipt as the proctor cannot administer the exam without this proof of payment.

When you pay for the exam, you will be given a receipt. Two forms of payment can be accepted: (1) cash (you must have exact amount – no change can be provided) or (2) personal check (made out to Radford University) – we do not have the ability to take credit cards as payment for certification exams.

If you are (1) not enrolled in ITEC 281 or (2) in ITEC 281, do not pass the exam and wish to take it again, you will have to pay the exam fee as specified below. If you are enrolled in ITEC 281, payment for taking the Microsoft Office Specialist Certification exam one time is included as a part of your course fee. The cost for Radford University students, faculty and staff to take a Microsoft Office Specialist Certification exam is $75 (Radford University charges a reduced rate that is less than the price of paying through Certiport or taking it at other Certiport centers).

Each exam typically consists of 6 - 7 projects and each project has approximately 4 to 7 questions. The Microsoft Office Specialist (MOS) 2019 exams use a project format.
